Lollipop killed stock "email" app!

Is it just me or did they kill the email app? When you open it they tell you that "email has moved" into gmail. I liked having the 2 separate. I use gmail for my personal email, and the email app for my work (exchange) email. This way there is NO confusion as to which account I am sending from.

The email app is part of the lollipop rom, it is already installed. If I look in the playstore it is listed as installed. It appears that you HAVE TO use gmail for exchange. I really liked having them separate apps all together.

I noticed this as well grrrrr. As a Lightflow user there is no ability to set a separate LED light for Exchange accounts in GMail app. I sent the developer an email and he indicated that Google has locked down the app and developers do not have access to notifications for Exchange Accounts in the new GMail app.
I may have to go 3rd Party for my work account.

I'm disappointed too. Google just doesn't get it. I used the Email app for work and could set a different notification sound and LED, and I could also use Notifications Off with Tasker to not send me notifications on weekends or my days off. Plus, I already use 2 different Gmail accounts and the new Gmail app doesn't show you which account you're actually in when viewing the Inbox like the old one did and it's not as easy to switch between accounts. Nine actually looks like a good alternative.
